Entry Hazards

Stealth Rock, Spikes, Toxic Spikes — controlling the field before you attack.

Why Hazards Win Games

Stealth Rock chips every switch-in by 12.5% (more for Flying/Fire/Bug/Ice). Over a full game that's often 50%+ of a Pokémon's HP. Run a hazard setter and a hazard remover on every team.
